Projects

  • Opening science: new ways of knowledge transfer using the example of the research project “Bromacker” (PI)

  • A reassessment of Permian parareptiles using 3D imaging technologies, and their importance for early amniote evolution and ecology (PI)

  • Evaluating the origin of Cynodontia (Synapsida, Therapsida) using 3D-Imaging Technologies (PI)

Research group Jörg Fröbisch

We study the early evolution and diversification of terrestrial vertebrates and their ecosystems, the origin of key innovations and body plans, and the impact of mass extinction events on terrestrial vertebrate ecosystems by combining paleontological fieldwork with modern 3D-imaging techniques and quantitative methods.
